This piece is especially amazing because it hits home with me. I 23 with no kids,and It is almost like black women are expected to have babies as babies. It's sick. Incredible. You have inspired a piece. It's comin soon
Be Blessed, Poetic

written a few days short of a year ago and I originally thought sistah's took offense to it but i see the pain in seeing something everyday while not making the same mistake is still hard. looking forward to that inspired piece. i had not replied to this before thinking it would die in committee lol again a grave digger photo has brought back to life another thought gone by. and yes mimi invisible and the best part i am always grateful for your words.

That's how these problems and issues keep repeating themselves.
